A recent photo of Man cui
I'm Man Cui, male, 65 years old. I'm a farmer in Manzhangzi Village, Qinglong Town, Qinglong County, northern China's Hebei Province.
In early 2010, I fell off the roof, which caused fracture of lumbar vertebra and deprived of my ability to work due to my belief in Li Hongzhi's theory of Law Bodies Protection.
On the 10th day of the twelfth lunar month in 1998, a Falun Gong practitioner from came to our village to teach it. As a lover of Qigong, I registered to become a member with hesitation in order to have a good body.
I was long suffering from rheumatism in the legs. My right knee always pains in rainy days. I had to take some anti-inflammatory and analgesic pills to relieve the pain.
A few days before I began practicing Falun Gong, I stumbled over a stone when mowing firewood on the hill, and my right leg was hurt. I suffered from pain for a long time. Then I couldn't work but still can walk.So I devoted myself to Falun Gong.
I practiced Dynamic Gong and Static Gong alternately. When I practiced the Static Gong, I crossed my legs and had myself calm down without anything in my mind, no matter good or bad. In that way I practiced for a month, then I felt better both in my right leg and my spiritual life. The feeling made me overjoyed, thinking that my sincere cultivation was effective and the Master has helped me purified my body.
Since then I became more obsessed in Falun Gong and practiced it around the clock. Meanwhile, I increasingly believed what the Master had said such as "offering salvation to humankind", "rising to a higher level", "Law Bodies Protection", "achieving consummation" and so on. I believed that the Master's Law Bodies would protect me all the time as long as I practiced hard.
In July 1999, China officially banned the Falun Gong, which made me feel very disgruntled. Regardless of the ban and objection from my family, I kept on practicing Falun Gong secretly at home.In order not to be discovered, sometimes I went to the corn field to practice under the table.
Once I made a dream during the nap. In the dream the Master, who was sitting on the lotus, was kindly looking at me. So I thought that I had practiced to a certain level and the Master's Law Bodies was paying attention to me hourly. Two things I experienced later strengthened my belief.
On the fourteenth day of the eighth lunar month, 2003, when crossing a road to go home on a bike, I hit against an electric motor tricycle. I became unconscious because of collision and fright. The owner of the tricycle hurriedly sent me to a country-level tradition Chinese medicine hospital for emergency treatment and had me made CT and other tests.
When I waked up, I found there were doctors and nursed in white clothes around me. I asked where I was. Someone answered, "You're in the hospital." Seeing my consciousness, a doctor pressed me from top to toe, asking if I feel aching or not. At that time I didn't feel aches anywhere but couldn't raise my head and would come up water I drank and food I ate.
A week later, I could walk, so I left the hospital. It cost more than one thousand yuan in the hospital. People said I was cowardly. I replied, "I'm not timid. I have practiced to a certain level and the Master's Law Body is protecting me all the time, so I haven't been seriously hurt."
On a winter night in 2004, an elder villager died.I went to keep vigil. When I returned it was very dark. When I was walking on the road, an electric motor tricycle carrying hay came towards me. The bright and harsh light blinded me. The moment I met I thought that I must be hit by the tricycle. But when I recovered, I saw the tricycle had driven past me. I wasn't hurt by the tricycle,so I thought it was because the Master was protecting me.
The two things made me more admire the Master. I thought that practicing Falun Gong would bring good retribution. The Master's Law Bodies were everywhere, so I need not be afraid of anything. As long as I did sincerely according to what the Master had said, the Master would guarantee my safety. Thus no matter what danger occurred I need not pay attention to it.
However, the Master's Law Bodies failed to protect me on what happened to me next.
I was a keeper for an iron mining area not far away from my home for a long time and lived in a bunk house made of hollow bricks and asbestos tiles. I kept watch around the clock the mining area with another worker, in charge of the properties and equipments for the mine, such as machines, iron powder, mine stones, etc. The bunk house often had leakage of rain in rainy days.
It was my turn to be on duty on the on August 20, 2010 according to the traditional Chinese calendar. My companion told me that the house had leakage the day before on his duty and he fell off the roof hen he changed tiles on it. Fortunately, he didn't badly hurt. It rained heavily that night. The ceiling hadn't been repaired well and still got a leakage, thus I climbed up the roof to repair it.
I knew well that it was dangerous and easy to fall off as it was very wet, but I thought it didn't matter with the protection of the Master's Law Bodies. In addition, my companion, who was an ordinary people, wasn't wounded when he fell off, let alone me?
I climbed up the ceiling to mend the leakage place while muttering to myself with words like"the Master blesses me" and "Falun Dafa is good". On the roof, I had one foot stamp on asbestos tiles. I had thought there had been rafters under the asbestos tiles but actually there were not. The asbestos tile broke, and then I fell off the 3-meter high roof, which caused fracture of lumbar vertebra.
Later, I had an operation in the county-level hospital of traditional Chinese medicine with placement of a steel plate in my body. I hospitalized for more than 2 months and spent over 30,000 yuan, but I was deprived of the working ability.
